Top 5 Reasons Why to Buy Sonic Games Collection

Hi everyone I'm Jack Red, considering Sonic Forces will be coming out in a few months. I figured it's time to tell you my personal reasons for buying Sonic Games Collection on Steam. Easily one of Sega's most expensive bundles is also one of their finest. If you grew up with the Genesis & Dreamcast games like me then this collection is a absolute must have.



5. Packed with content to keep you busy for months possibly years
Some of the newer Sonic games is filled with so much content to unlock. Some of it is very addicting to keep playing their respective games for many hours nonstop. Some of these games has multiplayer making things even more fun.

4. Good variety of Sonic games

Obviously most of these are amazing platformers. You also get two incredible racing games. Sonic Spinball is pinball style to keep you in the zone. Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is a great puzzle games for Genesis.

3. Most games has controller support

Most Sonic games in the bundle has great controller support. Sadly the same can't be said for both Sonic Adventure & Sonic 4 games. Most of them works just fine with your key board & mouse. By playing them with a controller is almost like playing them right off consoles. Maybe if you are looking for nostalgia this is the route you would go.

2. You can own these games for the rest of your life
Let's be honest Steam & GOG has the same basic idea in terms. Many PC games are difficult to find or simply too damn expensive. By buying from them you can get many games for much cheaper with a twist. As long you follow the rules you can own all your games for the rest of your life. Considering majority of these Sonic games are amazing. This is simply too good to pass up. If it helps sometimes Bundle Stars does temporary lower this bundle's price to make it easier to buy.

1. For free you can add Sonic Eraser, remaining lock-on games. Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles and Knuckles in Sonic 1

Not many people know this but Sonic games are already on Steam as mods you can download. As long you own Sonic 1, 2, and 3 & Knuckles in your Genesis collection. You can download Sonic Eraser that was originally exclusively in Japan as a part of a system. Over the years since someone found Sonic Eraser, most of us didn't even know this game existed. A short puzzle game featuring Sonic that's somehow addicting. You also can get the two remaining lock-on games. I recommend downloading Sonic 3 Complete since it has most of it in one place. Sadly Sega didn't know how to fix the sprites from turning red from Knuckles in Sonic 1.They ended up going with a full game of Blue Sphere instead. Thankfully a rom hacker has fixed the problem making this lost lock-on game playable. The way Sega originally attempted, Such a nice bonus to increase your replayable value among Genesis games

Update: Christian Whitehead not only worked on Sonic CD and Mania. He also worked on ports of the first three Sonic games. Just like Sonic CD, he made some clever changes. Like in both Sonic 1 and 2, you can play as two characters you originally couldn't before. Which means Knuckles in Sonic 1 finally became a real game.
